the lifestyle:
Upscale living amidst a picturesque bayside charm that brings neighbors together.

The lifestyle in Tiburon is as slow or as fast as you want it to be, catering to busy commuters who revel in the breezy 30-minute ferry ride to the city as much as telecommuting entrepreneurs and stay-at-home parents, but on summer evenings when downtown is pedestrian-only, neighbors relax and greet each other like old friends.

Unexpected appeal:
Tiburon is a nautical town at its heart, with maritime history, active marinas and bay views to prove it.

Catch a race from the Corinthian Yacht Club and watch the sailboats set out to paint the bay in windswept dots of white or simply soak up the sea air from any of Tiburon’s family-friendly bayside parks, which are strung out like pearls along the town’s waterfront.

The market:
Hillside mansions with small plots of land and stunning views are the norm on this tucked-away peninsula.

The homes in Tiburon are simply gorgeous and vary in architectural style, though with a median home value of $2.4 million, this oasis is on the pricey side, even for expensive Marin, with many properties reaching well above $10 million. But it’s the dramatic vistas residents are here for, and the great schools and tight-knit community are a bonus, encouraging locals to put down solid roots.
